Codon
TRIPLET CODE
3 bases are needed to specify an mRNA codon.
The three nucleotides C, G, and U correspond to cytosine, guanine, and uracil, respectively. These nucleotides are components of RNA, where uracil replaces thymine found in DNA. In the context of genetic coding, these nucleotides can form codons, which are sequences that specify particular amino acids during protein synthesis.
In DNA, three nucleotides are referred to as a "triplet." In mRNA, these triplets are called "codons," which specify amino acids during protein synthesis. In tRNA, the complementary three-nucleotide sequences to the codons are known as "anticodons," which help ensure the correct amino acids are incorporated into the growing polypeptide chain.
400 codons.Because 3 consecutive nucleotides in a gene together form a codon which codes for amino acids.

CONDON
Three nucleotides are required for an amino acid. These nucleotides are an amine, carbolic acid, and a side chain specific to the amino acid.
